MILAN ARE reportedly dealing at these moments with Genoa for the Brazilian striker who may join.

Milan have just today formalized the transfer of Giampaolo Pazzini from Inter in exchange for Antonio Cassano and €7 million but it appears that they are now close to signing another striker – from Genoa.

The Rossoneri currently have 4 strikers – Alexandre Pato, Robinho, Stephan El Shaarawy and Pazzini so in terms of numbers they may need another forward, even though the squad already consists of 28 players.

La Gazzetta dello Sport reports that Zé Eduardo, who joined Genoa from Santos and didn’t score in the eight games in which he played, will be tomorrow in Milanello to impress coach Massimiliano Allegri. Meanwhile, Adriano Galliani and Enrico Preziosi are negotiating in Forte dei Marmi for the 24-year-old.

The formula of the deal is expected to be a free-loan (reports do not state if there will be a buy-out option). Other players may be included in the deal. Sky Italia confirms the news and says the player is close.
